SARAH VINE: The difficult conversation needed about rape gangs

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : At a time when immigration has never been more out of control, when the Government is spending £4million a day on housing new arrivals at the expense of taxpayers and pensioners, when it seems powerless to stop the influx of boats containing young men with undeniably non-Western attitudes towards women, these are issues that can no longer be ignored.
39% : Lucy Powell, Leader of the Commons, apologised to the House for dismissing rape gangs as a 'dog whistle' issue We need it not just for the sake of the girls but also because it's high time we had a proper conversation about the social and cultural circumstances that allowed such abuses to take place, a conversation that inevitably will entail difficult but necessary and long overdue discussions around integration and cultural attitudes.
